Regular-irregular bubble departure patterns of film boiling on a horizontal heating wire

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

The transition between regular and irregular bubble departure pattern of film boiling on a horizontal heating wire is investigated experimentally. A range of transition heat flux can be identified. The transition is gradual in nature and is proposed as caused by bubble coalescence mechanism. A simple estimate for the transition heat flux under saturated film boiling is proposed and compared with experiments. © 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
